Local news radio station reporter Tracy Ellis at KGMI reports that the owner of Guiseppe’s, Guiseppe Mauro, got into a tiff with the landlord of the building Guiseppe’s is leaving for the new waterfront location.
Apparently, the altercation had to do with the terms of the former lease. The argument got heated, and Guiseppe ripped up the lease in front of landlord Doug Tolchin. At that point there was some pushing and shoving, and Guiseppe then hit Mr. Tolchin multiple times with a metal wire hanger. He did not use his FIST.
The result – Guiseppe was cited for misdemeanor assault. He’s still moving to the waterfront.
